You will need to load your theme into Theme Editor and enable it under Options, then save the theme, if you have not done so already.

There is a setting now. Are you sure they aren't disabled? In Display Settings make sure that Enable popup descriptions are set to Yes!

of course I turned them on! LOL

[Draco1962]

Well, whataya know - on the last page of Display Settings in the Advanced Config. Was finishing up on my theme and noted it in the Theme Editor (did not need to access Advanced Config yet).

i guess for some strange reason they just dont want to work with the blueglass theme OR the blackglass theme or the mustarda big video theme or the retrobox theme...so exactly what themes do they work with? the ones they always did?

it seems that the options menu inside the theme editor does nothing at all.in the options in theme editor the show date\time option is not ticked,yet the theme shows date and time.when I tick enable pop descriptions then save,that causes the theme to crash....

By the look of your crash it looked like a different theme issue to me like an image missing rather then an issues with descriptions?

Just to clarify the setting within the advanced config and setup wizard applies to version 3 themes only, ie not ones edited with the theme editor. If its a theme editor theme then the setting with the theme editor applies.

Hope this helps.

HA! I was right! Well, so far as enabling it within a version 4 theme. Mesk - if you enabled it in your theme and you are using a version 3 theme (which I think is the case), try disabling it in the theme editor options and saving the theme again.

ok here is exactly what i did.first i have been using blueglass since well before the update to 11.73.i then updated to 11.73 last night.at first i tried just turning descriptions on through the advanced config like frequency said.that did not work.then i loaded the theme in the theme editor,brought up options and ticked the box to enable pop up-this caused the theme to crash

just to update-loading the existing theme in the theme editor then turning on pop ups causes a crash,not only does it cause a crash,it seems to corrupt the theme because even reloading that theme and turning pop ups off the theme still crashes until it is replaced

Yeah your right although the issue is with the weather that was added a while ago. This should be fixed in 11.74 available in about 15 minutes. Cheers.
